Carrie
I think Carrie was a pretty scary and cool movie. I think it’s cool because I like physic energy and powers. I am really into that kind of stuff. And the fact that Carrie was a physic energy master was what really got me into this movie. I think that …
The Age of Adaline Movie
There are just some books that should not be made as movies, and The Age of Adaline was one of those books. I never read the book myself and after watching the movie I probably will do my best to go out of my way just to avoid it in …

Father of the Bride
“Father of the Bride” is a movie starring Steve Martin, Diane Keaton and Kimberly Williams as the father, the mother, and the soon-to-be bride, respectively. It is apparently a remake of the movie by the same name from the 1950s that I have never watched.
Pros: Steve Martin was …

Grandma’s Boy movie
A couple years ago when I had all of the movie channels they played this on one of them and I ended up watching it. It was better than I thought it was going to be. I really only started watching it because there was nothing else better on. …
Cosplay Complex anime
“Cosplay Complex,” an anime series about girls who compete in cosplay (dressing up), is raunchy is every sense of the word. Even though
it’s classified solely as comedy anime, it did not make me laugh at loud once. This extreme lack of humor is probably why there are only three
episodes. …
The Proposal Movie (2009)
The Proposal is a romantic comedy movie that starts Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. Sandra Bullock is such a good actress that any movie that stars her is probably a good quality movie. She plays a snobbish, selfish, egocentric boss who is a Canadian citizen and is in dire …
Yes Man (2008)
I’ve seen this movie last week, with some friends in the local multiplex. Well, this one, is probably one of those movies you watch and enjoy while watching it, and you forget the moment the credits start to roll. There isn’t anything much, or memorable about this movie (well, …
Movie The Holiday
I like this movie, not love, like. I watch this movie at the first place because of the casts in it, I mean, Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law, wow! This is a drama/comedy kind of movie. The plot is kind of interesting, about two women …

I rent from the kiosk machine Redbox. It is conveniently located in a lot of grocery stores, gas stations, and some drug stores. I was previously renting from a movie rental store and would often get aggravated when I would turn in the movie a day late and would …
Batman Forever, movie
Val Kilmer’s time out as Batman isn’t a bad turn at the helm, but it’s certainly not as strong as the original 89 movie with Michael Keaton in the role. Still this film had a great caste, but it made the same mistake that has killed so many other …
Batman Begins (Movie)
Everyone I knew told me to go see Batman Begins because they thought I would love it. I’m a fan of comic books, and I own nearly every comic book themed movie in the world. Still I could tell from the previews that it was a movie I just …

Rush Hour 3 (2007)
Coming back for a third time, Rush Hour 3, in my opinion, has done a lot better than the second. With a great addition of Israeli actor Yvan Attal, who plays George, this movie is a great finish to top off a funny trilogy.
Jackie Chan is back and better …
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000 film)
Chinese cinema owes a lot to Ang Lee’s breakthrough masterpiece at the Academy Awards. Not only is the first Asian film to gain mass popularity, acclaim and high prestige awards, it was followed by a whole stream of wuxia films that is still running and to be honest none …
How She Move (movie)
When I saw the actress Rutina Wesley in the popular cable television series “True Blood”, I could not place my finger on where I had seen her before since she looked so familiar to me, and it was only later that I found out that it was she who …
The wind will carry us movie

The Fall - (Tarsem Singh) film
This is a stunningly good, stunningly beautiful film.

Godzilla vs. Biollante
Godzilla vs. Biollante is a movie that I highly recommend to Godzilla fans or monster movies fans in general. Godzilla looks incredible in this movie. He actually looks real and very evil, and his original 1954 roar is used in this movie, which is very fitting and it sounds …

Mama (supernatural horror movie)
